Add an example to pw.8 about how to add an existing user to a group. Instead of using pw to modify group membership, users often edit /etc/group by hand, which is discouraged. Provide an example of adding a user to the wheel group, which is a common use case. I'm using a different user here as in the previous example as that deleted the user (although the examples don't necessarily have to be followed in order).

backout remove of -q option for pw [user|group] next

While the return code is broken, some corner case usage depends on the functionnality, so backout until we get better regression tests covering those corner case usage.

the intent of -q in this command is to return as exit status the value of the next group/user id, which does not make sense given exit status are limited to values between 0 and 255.
